Can the search field be auto-activated when using the browser extension of Dropbox Passwords?

When using a browser extension to open Dropbox Passwords, have the search field automatically activated for faster searching.

    Dropbox Passwords – Should have the search field selected and ready for input when activated.

    Because it is the first and only thing I do – I search, it is much quicker then scrolling a long list.

    Agreed - this would make the experience of using Passwords on macOS much better.

    -Open the Passwords browser extension in Safari on macOS.

    -Press cmd+F.

    -Expected behaviour: the Passwords search field will be highlighted, and I can start typing to search my list of passwords.

    -Observed behaviour: the Safari page search pop-over is highlighted instead, which is useless in the Passwords extension. I need to use my mouse to click on the Passwords search field, which is slow and annoying.
